gitget

Clones git repositories into a single folder organized by username and repo name. For the Go Gophers out there...this is llike go get for all your repositories.

Usage

# Usage: gitget.sh <source_repository> <destination_folder>

# Current valid URLs
# git://github.com/some-user/my-repo.git
# git@github.com:some-user/my-repo.git
# https://github.com/some-user/my-repo.git


$ gitget.sh git://github.com/moonmeister/gitget.git ~/code


# Would clone the repository to:

# Linux:
/home/<username>/code/moonmeister/gitget

# macOS:
/Users/<username>/code/moonmeister/gitget

Setup Destination

Instead of typing a destination every time you can set it via an environment variable. If you want to override this passing in a different destination will override the environment variable.

$ export CODE_PATH=~/code

Setup Alias

# Setup alias
$ alias gg="$CODE_PATH/code/moonmeister/get-git/getgit.sh"

# Now you can run
$ gg git://github.com/moonmeister/gitget.git

I'd recommended this export and alias be added to your bash profile so they are availble permanently.

Contribute

I'd love if you contributed to making this better!

Here are a few features I can think of if you don't have any:

• Allow for https://github.com/some-user/my-repo URLs (no .git extension)
• Allow for github.com/some-user/my-repo URLs (no .git extension or protocol)
• Installers for various package managers
